Our range of Shared Living Arrangement Services is designed to provide safe, supportive, and inclusive living environments where individuals can thrive. We offer a variety of shared living options, each tailored to meet the unique needs and preferences of our clients. Our mission is to create homes where individuals can build relationships, develop life skills, and enjoy a sense of belonging within their communities.
1. Supported Independent Living (SIL):
- Empowering Independence: SIL provides individuals with disabilities the opportunity to live in a shared home while receiving the support they need to enhance their independence. Our experienced staff members offer assistance with daily living tasks, skill development, and community integration.
- Personalized Support: We create personalized support plans to meet the specific goals and needs of each resident. This allows for flexibility and ensures that individuals receive the right level of support to achieve their aspirations.
2. Short-Term Accommodation (STA):
- Respite and Transitional Support: STA offers short-term accommodation options for individuals with disabilities. It serves as both a respite for caregivers and a transitional support for participants. We provide a safe and welcoming environment for individuals to stay while caregivers take a break or during transitions in their lives.
- Recreation and Skill Building: During their stay, individuals engage in recreational activities, develop life skills, and build connections with peers and support staff.
3. Medium-Term Accommodation (MTA):
- Transition and Skill Enhancement: MTA is designed for individuals who require medium-term accommodation and support. It often serves as a bridge between short-term arrangements and permanent living situations. We focus on skill enhancement and goal attainment during this period.
- Tailored Plans: Our team works closely with participants to create tailored support plans that address their unique goals and needs. The aim is to prepare individuals for greater independence in the long term.
Individualized Living Options (ILO):
- Personalized Living Solutions: ILO offers a highly individualized approach to shared living. It involves individuals with disabilities and their families in choosing and designing their living arrangements.
- Community Involvement: We facilitate connections with roommates and support networks, helping participants choose the right home environment and engage with their communities in meaningful ways.
